21: Now this is getting interesting…

Minato: What is it this time?

21: This will be somewhat of a filler chapter with you training with Hinata to master the Hyuga techniques. And I might write what's happening with the others when you got sent into the past.

Minato: *stood up straight and grabs 21 by the collar* If any of them die…I'll kill you!

21: Don't worry; no one dies in your time because that will ruin everything! And one more thing, it's about the World Social Link's Personas…

Minato: *raises eyebrow* What is it?

21: There will be 2 Persona's for this Link and two have been unlocked.

Minato: *Now curious* Who are they?

21: Garra and the Ichibi of course! Since your Link with Naruto is Rank 1, you can only summon the Jinchurriki and the Biju of the Ichibi.

Minato: I see, and what would happen once I max out the World Arcana?

21: You must fuse all 9 Jinchurriki to create the 10th Jinchurriki and if you fuse all 9 Biju you get to create the Jubi!

Minato: …Wow, talk about overkill.

21: Best part is when you return to your time, you get to keep them and use them. Especially on the Reaper of course! Kukukukukuku…..

Minato: *grins evilly* You know how to make my day 21-san.

Naruto and Hinata: Fan of Fanfics21 does not own Naruto or Persona 3.


*At the Hyuga Compound*

Minato woke up from his bed at the guest room of the Hyuga Compound and changed into one of the robes that were there. Today he decided to go out and train after he ate breakfast. Once he went into the kitchen he greets Hinata who was cooking in there and decided on what technique Minato was going to practice with. Even though he has it mentally down, he needed to get the experience to get it right and he learned the hard way not to practice alone.

*Secret Author Technique-Flashback no Jutsu!*

Here we see Minato at training ground 7 practicing the Rotation, heavily exhausted and had chakra burn marks on parts of his body. "Okay, one last time." Minato panted as he focused on releasing chakra all over his body while spinning attempting to do the Rotation, only for it to explode on him. Just as he was losing consciousness from the explosion, he heard Hinata yelling out his name before passing out only to wake up at the Hyuga Compound with Hinata healing his wounds.

"I think it would be a lot better if you had someone work with you on this." Hinata said only for Minato to grunt and nod in agreement before falling asleep.

*Flashback no Jutsu Kai!*

"Are you ready for your training Minato-kun?" Hinata asked as Minato nodded and they both got into the Gentle Fist Stance.

"Either I get it right today or never." He said with determination in his eyes. He then gathered chakra in his pressure points as Hinata observed with her Byakugan to see if there are any mistakes. After she nodded that he was okay Minato started spinning and released the stored chakra all at once determined to get it right. After he finished the technique, Hinata nodded and told him to look at the small crater he made and after observing it, Hinata told him he perfected it faster than Neji did much to his surprise. It was already lunchtime so Minato went out to eat.


*Lunchtime*

(Persona 3 soundtrack: Afternoon Break)

*Restaurant District*

As Minato was walking around looking for something to eat, he notices Naruto coming towards him.

"Hey Minato, wanna get something to eat together?" Naruto asked with a friendly smile on his face.

"Sure," Minato said, "but no ramen today." Seeing Naruto was going to suggest ramen again only for Naruto to make a pouting face before thinking of somewhere else to eat.j

"Ah! I got it!" Naruto said, "How about the BBQ place Choji always eats at?" he asked.

Minato nodded and said "Sure, I always wondered how it tastes there."

*BBQ Restaurant*

(Persona 3 Soundtrack: Joy)

As Minato and Naruto were waiting for their food to be cooked on the grill, Naruto started to talk to him.

"So where are you from?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Well…" Minato said trying to make sure not to spill anything that might make him reveal he was from the future. As fate was on his side, Choji and Shikamaru appeared and took a seat with them.

"So you're the new recruit that Hokage-sama was talking about." Shikamaru stated.

Minato chuckled and said "Yeah, and I'm new here so I'll try not to be troublesome Shikamaru-senpai." Shikamaru raised an eyebrow at the honorific but guessed that Minato was a rookie and he himself was someone of higher skill and was the one to be a leading model, but it would just be too troublesome for him.

Choji then introduced himself. "I'm Choji, and it's a pleasure to meet you!" he said before he started to pig out on the barbeque.

Minato chuckle and said "Like wise Choji, and you must be the second guy I met who is-" Naruto and Shikamaru quickly turned to Choji to see that he might explode if he heard the taboo word "fat" "-big boned." Finished Minato as Naruto, Shikamaru and Choji calmed down. They quickly ate their food before it got burnt and now they were dealing with one problem: who is going to pay the bill. They were arguing (mostly Naruto and Choji) and Minato gave an idea. "How about splitting it four-ways?" he asked. Getting nods from the rest as they paid the bill and went separate ways as Minato and Naruto went to the Hyuga Compound.

"So how is Hinata?" Naruto asked.

"If you have feelings for her then ask her yourself." Minato said in a teasing voice causing Naruto to blush a little.

"Well I was planning to give her a chance after I deal with Sasuke and Madara though." Naruto said.

"Well I wish you the best of luck then when the time comes." Minato said. Naruto smiled and they shook hands. "Thanks man." Naruto said. Once they got there Minato bid Naruto farewell and he felt his friendship with Naruto was getting closer.

Rank Up! World Rank 2

As Minato walked into the compound he saw Hinata practicing her Gentle Step Twin Lions Fist on a dummy that strangely resembles Neji for some reason but he put that aside as she noticed him. She asked how his day was been and he told her it was interesting. He told her he was going to bed and then fell on his futon thinking how his friends are and if they are alright.


/Scene change: Tartarus/

Junpei was recasting another Marakuja to increase Yukari's and Mitsuru's defenses as well as his own as the girls were focusing on healing and support while running from the Reaper who was currently chasing them.

"Give it up you brats!" the Reaper roared. "Your leader is gone and now your all doomed to die here and now!" as it attempted to attack them again only for it to hit in the head by Junpei's Persona Hermes.

"Keep moving guys!" Junpei yelled as they ran up the stairs hoping to find another transport while the Reaper was glaring at them angrily and continued to chase them up the stairs.

/Back with Minato/

"I hoped they can handle themselves till I find a way back home" he thought as he quickly feel asleep, preparing for the next training lesson from Hinata.


Director: CUT!

21: That was exhausting to right…

Minato: *depanned expression* 6 pages that bad?

21: Hey! You forget this is my first time writing a fic! And since you've increased the rank of the World Arcana you get to fuse Yugito Nii and the Nibi nyah!

Minato: *sweatdrops* Why did you imitate a cat?

21: *serious look* I like cats and kittens because they are cute.

Minato: ….ooookaaayyyy…

21: Well that's it folks! See ya soon!
